I think you need to cool yourself a little, first. If you feel that stressed from the situation, remove yourself until you cool down a little. Then remember you are ONLY diagnosed now. You've just started meds and hopefully read the medicine warnings and such so you know if you are having a bad reaction to the medicine. (Take it everyday!)

But really, I think you need to chill out. Explain to your boyfriend it takes a couple weeks before the medicine can take it's full effect. Education yourself on BP even more by buying a book and reading about it. Ask him to read the book with you. The more you know about this illness the more power you have over it. A lot of people are going to make you mad that they know so little about MI, but that is when you either ignore the comment or explain to them what it is without being mean/aggressive about it.

As much as I hate to say it, you need to take care of yourself first. It doesn't sound like you totally are. A good diet and exercise will actually make your mood better and keep you in the game. It is very hard work to maintain BP but it can be done!
